751 Awesome backstage
(); Of course, everyone is a mechanic, and it is normal to use a mechanism to do the work for you.
But few priests would choose to do so, and almost everyone did it with their own hands!
From the very beginning of the day to the present, everyone seems to have tacitly agreed to this, as if only by doing so can they express their devotion to the god of the machine.
But Chang Ming threw out the agency man indifferently like this, and he did an exceptionally good job, so that people couldn't find fault with it.
Xie Changyun knew in his heart that it was just a default rule, and the temple did not have such a clause!
He took a deep breath and said with a stiff face, "Not bad, well done!"
Chang Ming said unashamedly: "Thank you for the compliment, we can go out now......, right?" Doesn't feel like something is quite right?"
Xie Changyun snorted heavily, stepped on heavy steps, and strode out.
Next, he did not feel embarrassed for the time being, but gave them a "lecture" according to the original arrangement. The Black Iron Priest who can work in the temple still has two brushes, in fact, the results of the examination of these five probationary priests will also affect his evaluation at that time, he will not make trouble on this, and he will explain it in great detail and seriously.
The Black Iron Priesthood is not a lifelong job. Every ten years, they have a chance to go out. Of course, they can also choose not to leave and continue to work here.
After leaving the temple, they will revert to being normal mechanics, no longer in charge of the temple's work, and of course no longer have the resources of the temple to support them.
Most of the mechanics came to be priests for this, so. There are very few people who have only been doing it for ten years.
Every six months, the temple priests had an exam. This exam is similar to the previous ones, mainly to test their belief in the god of the machine. The faith test is the key of the key, and if you don't pass, you will be kicked out immediately.
In addition to this, priests can get different "Faith Points", which they use to promote through Faith Points.
Faith is credited to your daily work, but in order to earn more Faith points, you must contribute to the Temple.
Contributions can take many forms, ranging from reporting violations of the purity prohibition. Report a priest who violates the rules of the temple. It can also help the temple to obtain resources from the outside, and it can also be to discover and bring in talent...... And so on and so forth. So, like a shark hungry for blood, every priest kept an eye on everything around him. Can't wait to get more faith.
For example, Xie Changyun himself. It's to report a mechanic who violated the ban on purity. Gain a full 100 Faith and ascend from the Satellite City to the Temple Headquarters.
This matter is Xie Changyun's proud work, and he did not elaborate. But it can't help but be mentioned in the words. The other four apprentice priests nodded in admiration, but Chang Ming frowned slightly.
As we all know, there are four grades of priests: gold, silver, bronze, and black iron, and each rank has several chief priests. The chief priest will be given priority to be promoted to the rank of higher priest. So now Xie Changyun's target is not the bronze priest for the time being, but the black iron priest chief.
However, to be promoted to the chief priest, on the one hand, it depends on the value of faith, and on the other hand, it also depends on the evaluation of the superior priests, so you must be extremely careful in everything you do and speak, especially to the superior priests, you must be respectful and not offended.
"The rank of the priest of the temple is very important, and when the lower priest sees the higher priest, he must back down and bow, this etiquette I have just taught you. This is a very important rule, if you are complained by a higher priest, two faith points will be deducted for each offense, you must remember it!"
Xie Changyun looked at the five apprentice priests sternly, staring at Chang Ming's gaze was particularly fierce, Chang Ming thought about it, and nodded his head.
Xie Changyun took another step and walked out with them: "Rank is very important, and position is also very important. There are some priests in the temple who hold special positions, and although their rank may not be very high, it is best to back down after seeing them. ”
"What special duties?"
"Like a priest with a rod!"
When Xie Changyun mentioned these four words, even his voice lowered, and a thick look of panic appeared on his face.
By this time, they had already walked out of the side hall and onto the road outside.
Xie Changyun said: "The priest with the rod is responsible for maintaining the normal order of the temple, dealing with disputes between priests, and has the right to punish any priest on the spot!
"Is it okay to be higher?"
"On the spot?"
The different probationary priests noticed different emphases and questioned in a low voice.
Xie Changyun nodded heavily: "That's right, it's on the spot! As long as they judge that a person has violated the rules of the temple, they can immediately punish them." If the priest felt that he had done nothing wrong and had been wronged, he could also appeal to his superiors afterwards. ”
"But...... If it's okay, then it's been punished......"
"Yes, even if it is fine, the higher will only question the actions of the rod-bearing priest and reclaim the charge of the punished priest. But if you are punished, you will be punished in vain, and there will be no compensation. ”
"...... Uproar"
Several trainee priests whispered in unison, their faces showing the same fear as Xie Changyun.
Chang Ming listened attentively for a while, and sighed in his heart, if he said this, the power of the rod-holding priest would be too great.
At this time, they had already left the range of the side hall, and Xie Changyun suddenly shouted: "Stand back!"
As he spoke, he retreated to the side of the road, bowed his waist respectfully to the two priests who were coming in front of him.
The two men were dressed in black robes and held short silver staffs in their hands. Their robes were different from those of ordinary priests, with a large hood that covered their heads, revealing only a small amount of their chins. But from this point, it can be seen that their jawlines are extremely tight, and the expressions under the hoods must be extremely serious!
They walked slowly, with a strong aura of murder. Every step they took was like a ruler had been measured, and their stride was extremely consistent.
Looking at these two people, four words suddenly came to the minds of the trainee priests—"Priest with a rod!"
That's right. This must be the rod-wielding priest that Xie Changyun just mentioned. Otherwise, as a black iron priest, Xie Changyun would not have been scared like this.
Two Black Iron priests passed by them, clearly not coming for them. Xie Changyun suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. Of course, he knew that he had been careful and could not have made any mistakes, but when he suddenly saw these two people, he was still a little frightened.
He cautiously looked out of the corner of his eye, and suddenly his brow furrowed.
Five midshippers were not far from him, four bowed their heads like him, but one stood proudly. Two rod-bearing priests passed by. He even smiled and nodded to them!
What a bold man to greet the rod-bearer like this!
In the shadow of the hood, the wand-wielding priest's jaw twitched slightly, and his gaze shifted. Xie Changyun's heart immediately lifted. Pleasantly surprised.
Surprised. The two of them were a little dissatisfied at first glance. But don't pull yourself in, the good thing is that they are targeting Chang Ming, if they can clean up Chang Ming on the spot. It can be regarded as a bad anger in his heart!
Xie Changyun couldn't suppress the smile on his face a little, he quietly took a step back, thinking about what to say in his heart, while waiting to see a good show.
The hood was raised, and the two staff-wielding priests were looking at Chang Ming, and the short staff in their hands was raised together.
Going? Great!
The hood slides back, revealing the face of one of the staff-wielding priests. He looked at Chang Ming, a little puzzled on his face.
Doubt?
What is he wondering? This guy dares to be so rude, hurry up!
The two staff-bearing priests looked at each other as if in a silent exchange. Finally, the priest who slipped off his hood opened his mouth.
The priest is about to rebuke this boy!
"May I ask your Excellency's name?"
But it is also possible that the priest is more cautious and asks for the first time so that he can report the crime. Hmmm, it's possible!
"Trainee priest Chang Ming, I just arrived at the temple today, and I am being led around by Teacher Xie to visit and study!"
Chang Ming was not nervous at all, and his tone was as relaxed as an old friend.
This kid is so bold!
"Chang Ming, you are Chang Ming?"
Hey, something seems wrong?
Completely unexpected, the expressions of the two staff-wielding priests suddenly became affectionate. Another priest also took off the hood on his head and said kindly: "Yes, today is the first day of the new Black Iron Priest to report, so in this way, we will be colleagues in the future!"
"You know me?"
"Yes, the chief priest has greeted us, and we must take care of you when we see you. What a coincidence, this is what happened!"
"Yes, it's a coincidence, hahahaha!"
The two staff-wielding priests laughed together, and Xie Changyun and the other four trainee priests were all dumbfounded.
Am I mistaken, or am I dreaming? When did the rod-bearer be so gracious?
Of course, the rod-bearer priest was also selected from the priesthood, and there was no difference in nature, they were all human beings, and of course there were differences between relatives and relatives. But most of the rod-bearers were so conscious of their status that they were prone not to talk to anyone outside of them.
Now they not only take the initiative to ask and talk, but also behave so closely......
Who is Chang Ming, and who are the "chief priests of the king" they are talking about?
Many thoughts flashed through Xie Changyun's mind, and after a while, he finally came to his senses and asked in disbelief, "Chief Priest Wang?" Could it be Lord Wang Lian, the new Chief Priest of the Eastern District?"
The staff-wielding priest looked at him and said coldly, "Of course it's this lord, otherwise who else?"
As soon as they turned to Chang Ming, their expressions immediately changed again: "The two of us are responsible for patrolling this area, Chang Ming, if you have any problems, just tell us, we can still take care of it!"
Chang Ming thanked them again and again and watched them leave. Then, he turned back and smiled, "Let's go, let's continue the lesson." ”
Xie Changyun's eyes were completely different from before, he looked at Chang Ming cautiously, nodded and said, "Hmm...... Well, let's move on ......" (To be continued.) )
